Burger King also had a location on the north side of 46th Street between 5th and 6th that closed and was demolished to make way for the new Diamond District building there. I can’t understand why the Whopper Bar had to close and there are so many other hamburger joints that remain open.

I didn’t know there was a McDonald’s in the Concourse — where was it located?

technically not in the rock center concourse (where Tri Tip, Potbelly, etc is). It’s a concourse adjacent to it. Located under the UBS & Time buildings (51st btwn 6th & 7th, but much closer to 6th). I don’t know what companies are there, but I know they are offices now.

I work in 1251 Ave of Americas and would go to this BK if I were in a rush. Unfortunately, this location was TERRIBLE in terms of speed as their process could be aptly described as a sh*t-show. Makes sense that they closed down.

It’s that mix of faint liquid smoke (I can’t imagine the flame-broiling does it) and their special blend of sweeteners that sets its taste apart from McDonald’s and its special blend of sweeteners.

The Facebook showed me that the fast food experiment is over two years old now — a burger and fries from each of four fast-food places has been sitting out in the open for two years. Thus far, no mold, no bugs.

I think that BK closed due to mismanagement. The times I went there were long lines but terribly inefficient. They either had too few people working the registers/assembly line or too many people who didn’t do anything.

The last time I went to a BK was that one in Rockefeller Center. Summer of 2010, I think it was, that they did a tie-in with Iron Man or some superhero film, and their signature Whopper was topped with fried onion bits and some other stuff that somehow evoked memories of the superhero.

Anyway, TL,DR: terrible. I’ll chalk up not feeling well after eating that, to not being used to that food.
